Your combination of architectural styles, color theory and 2011 color trends was a nice balance and I think we all walked away feeling more confident in our ability to sell color to our clients!

I really enjoyed the portion where you talked about the Color Marketing Group and what a huge task you undertake in determining upcoming color trends!
